How about you Swanman, dipped your toe into the Infinity storyline yet?

I keep asking to see if it's worth getting into just on the name comics alone, or if I'm going to have to pick up all the offshoot storylines as well. DC did that with Blackest Night, and I found it annoying.

This is the checklist/reading order they've been printing in the back of each issue.

I think all the stuff on this list is necessary, but I'm not sure how it would read if you just did Infinity 1-6. There are several tie-ins not on this list, you can safely skip those.
